REPORTER: Why are you telling your supporters to vote by mail if you think it's fraud? TRUMP: I'd rather have them vote in person, but they can vote by mail. But there is a lot of cheating in vote by mail. REPORTER: There's no evidence. TRUMP: You are fake news. #ProudBlue #Pinks #SheShed

Fear of prosecution? Maybe a few are thinking, "this ain't right!" But I suspect many are pissed bc their promised bonuses never came through. That's what MAGA idiot politicians are known for: broken promises.

If your goal is to eat more home-cooked food it’s perfectly OK not to make everything from scratch. buy the instant rice, The bottled sauce, is the frozen diced onions, the ginger in a tube.... Lower the bar and focus on your actual goals.

President Trump is deeply unpopular and trapped in an unwon war of his own choosing. A reckoning—one far harsher than was expected, even a few months ago—seems imminent, Susan B. Glasser writes.

🚨 Not worried enough! Trump is fortifying the city with drone ports. He isn’t leaving. He can’t let Dems win midterms or the funding for his strategically placed ports/military installations disguised as “remodels” may dry up. These are to be used against the protestors. This is an emergency.🚨

Demand Justice for Wilber Rafael Garcés Pérez. On September 20, ICE agents in north Austin shot Wilber in his car in a vicious mid-day attack while he was delivering for DoorDash. ICE agent rammed his car and shot him in the back then took him to the hospital and later took him in custody. WTF.

Report: Top DOJ official threatens to fire prosecutors who refuse to pursue voter fraud cases
The reported threat comes as federal agencies devote increasing resources to investigations of possible noncitizen voting, which is exceptionally rare.

Mike Johnson's decision to send the House home early — again — is fueling an increasingly bitter feud with GOP Rep. Thomas Massie over whether the speaker is using the calendar to dodge politically painful votes.
axios.com
Johnson-Massie feud boils over: "Why are we taking days off our calendar?"
"Speaker Johnson has vacated Congress. Like I don't need to vacate Speaker Johnson," Massie told Axios.
